A double for Leandro Trossard helped Belgium move to the last 32 and thrash New Zealand 5-1 in Vancouver. Belgium drew their opening two games, so this win put them top of Group G on goal difference. They showed dominance from the kick off, and it was the 28th minute when Trossard opened the scoring. He followed that with a goal in the 50th minute, with De Bruyne and Lukaku adding more misery on New Zealand.
Belgium Finally Show Up
It took Belgium a while, but it seems like their World Cup has now begun. They completely outclassed New Zealand with great intensity and one-touch passing throughout the game. Kevin De Bruyne created a masterclass of passing and supplied the ammunition to Trossard, who bagged two goals.
The quality of opposition will get stronger, but if Trossard and De Bruyne can maintain their form, Belgium may surprise people. It will be Seattle on Wednesday for Belgium next, and as it stands, they will face South Korea in the last 32.
